Aliağa Petkimspor Head Coach Burak Gören, who defeated Beşiktaş Emlakjet 97-83 in the 11th week of the Turkish Insurance Basketball Super League, made important statements after the match.
Evaluating the match, Gören said, “No matter what league or position you are in, it is difficult to play a game that you have to win at home by losing 3 weeks in a row. The mental and psychological side of this is very important rather than the physical side,” he said.
Aliağa Petkimspor Head Coach Burak Gören continued his statements as follows:
“Although we played good basketball for most of the first half, we experienced the pressure and the stress of the will to win. This is not just something that happens to us. Anyone who has experienced it already knows what it means.
We started the second half well, we played better basketball with the advantage of getting the score. With the contribution of Kenny Chery and other players, we made the end more comfortable.
We had a very difficult time last year. The 3-week losing streak really upset us. It was an important win for us, we worked hard as a team all week.”
